This report deals comprehensively with the physiography, prospect geology, and ore genesis, and includes an assessment of the iron ore reserves and other mineral resources of an area which has been almost the sole source of the iron ore used in...

The Mount McTaggart prospect is located 15 miles south-west of Arkaroola Base Camp and 3 miles west of the Arkaroola-Balcanoona Road. A programme of ten rotary percussion holes totalling 3457 feet commenced on 11/10/1971 and was completed on...

A sample of flotation concentrate submitted by Peko Mines N.L. was subjected to magnetic separation as received,and after grinding. Approximately 10 per cent of the weight of the concentrate can be rejected as a magnetic fraction which contains five...

Magnetic and induced polarisation surveys over portion of the Burr Diapir south of the old Mount Burr Mine have indicated anomalies associated with basic rock outcrop. Drilling sites have been selected.

Regionally metamorphosed Precambrian jaspilites and amphibolites, thickened by dragfolding and with an associated aeromagnetic anomaly, were tested by diamond drilling. BD 1 drilled 549', intersected 150' of jaspilite estimated to contain 5-10% iron...

The gravity and magnetic anomalies mapped suggest a buried basement ridge 200-300 feet high, rising to within about 70 feet of the surface and containing a narrow, vertical band of magnetic material. This is possibly minute amounts of magnetite in a...

Iron ore exploration undertaken within two small licence subareas centred 60 km south of Yunta, in the vicinity of the outcropping Razorback Ridge banded iron formation of Sturtian age, was directed at assessing the economic potential of the...

A small exploration licence area centred approximately 50 km west-northwest of Whyalla, which is mainly covered by Quaternary sediments, has been taken up by the South Australian Iron Ore Group (SAIOG) to explore for possible concealed economic...

A licence area consisting of two separate sub-blocks located on the plains extending to the west of the Middleback Range on north-eastern Eyre Peninsula was taken up to explore for possible economic buried deposits of stratabound magnetite iron ore...

Exploration undertaken in an elongate north-south area situated 40 km west and north-west of Tarcoola has targeted possible economic iron oxide - associated copper-gold (IOCG) mineralisation that may have formed within altered near-surface Hiltaba...

Exploration Licence 3048 Pondooma, consisting of two separate sub-blocks that are centred ~60 km south-west of Whyalla, is located immediately west of the Middleback Range and 5 km west of Onesteel’s Iron Duke mine. This licence was granted to SA...

A small, north-western part of a licence located immediately south of Olary township has recently been relinquished due to it having perceived minimal iron ore potential. The only work undertaken on the relinquished ground was the acquisition along...

The key advantages of location and simple metallurgy of coastal Eyre Peninsula magnetite ores presented Portman Mining Ltd with an opportunity to enter a major under-explored and under-developed iron ore province and develop a new export business....

An occurrence of primary magnetite mineralisation within buried Archaean magnetic basement, first inferred from a strong northeast-trending linear magnetic anomaly observed at a location 20 km south of Ooldea Siding at the northern edge of the...

Early in 2001, Helix Resources Ltd entered into a joint venture agreement with Centrex Resources Limited to allow it to explore for precious and base metals on some of the tenements held by Centrex on the Eyre Peninsula in South Australia, including...

A very small area centred ~70 km south-east of Olary, and lying immediately west of the SA / NSW border and on the northern edge of the Murray Basin, has been explored for possible economic stratabound iron ore occurrences within concealed...
